Searching for human potential and universal intelligence

[Гылкой в глаз @ValeryGilka]

OpenAI собрала 10 000 агентов. Они нагенерили 2,7 млн сообщений и 130 млрд токенов, потратив несколько мил��ионов долларов, чтобы решить задачу тысячелетия. А Перельману хватило питерской однушки и продуктового у дома.

This is a good visualization of David Bohm’s enfolded order of the cosmos experiment.

This reveals the implicit order he found in advanced physics and in our life.

Einstein called Bohm his successor.

Yet few know of David Bohm.

sauna is great

everything you need to know...

0. sauna is a top longevity therapy
1. dry sauna is best
2. wet & Infrared saunas lack longevity evidence
3. aim to do 4-7 sessions per week
4. the body takes time to acclimate to sauna
5. expect sleep & HRV to be wrecked in first 2 weeks
6. after workouts is ideal
7. avoid polyester clothing & towels
8. wear as little as possible & 100% cotton
9. heat wrecks male fertility
10. men should ice their balls
11. women don’t need ice
12. wear a sauna hat to avoid hair/scalp irritation
13. 11 min @ 176°F (80ºC) is when benefits start
14. 20 min @ 195°F (90.5ºC) is ideal
15. pro move: core body temp to 102.2°F (39ºC) 
16. this takes me 34 minutes @ 200°F (93ºC)
17. be careful, that’s hot as hell & not necessary
18. don’t cold plunge after
19. never sauna dehydrated
20. drink electrolytes before and after
21. sauna’s good for muscle recovery
22. it may remove microplastics from body
23. don’t water rocks, avoid aerosolizing contaminants
24. measure the air quality in your sauna (if you can)
25. remove potentially toxic materials from your sauna
26. sauna with a friend creates joy

Finally, a big name has the courage to tell it: we are nowhere near AGI.

Demis Hassabis, CEO of Google DeepMind and Nobel laureate for AlphaFold, put it neat and clear:

"Today's systems are nowhere near [AGI]. Doesn't matter how many Erdős problems you solve… I think it's far, far from what a true invention, or someone like Ramanujan, would have been able to do."

This is the elephant in the room that many AI enthusiasts prefer not to see, or are actively trying to hide.

Erdős problems are well defined, often combinatorial, on finite spaces. They are exactly the kind of problems on which current AI can achieve spectacular performance with a lot of compute and knowledge.

A neural network can search a huge graph of possibilities. It can recombine existing knowledge at unprecedented scale. It can discover surprising solutions inside an already defined conceptual space.

But true invention is something else.

True invention is not only solving a problem.

It is inventing new objects, new dimensions, new connections. It is inventing new problems.

From resolving to inventing there is a discontinuity that we don't know how to bridge.

We are making extraordinary tools.
But we are nowhere close to AGI.

10 squats beats a 30 min walk.

For blood sugar control after a meal, doing 10 squats every 45 minutes outperforms a dedicated 30 min walk by 14%.

The mechanism: your quadriceps and glutes are the largest glucose sponge in your body. Activating them repeatedly clears more glucose than one sustained effort.

The 30 min walk isn't wrong, it's just not as effective.

Тред фотографий года.

Спасибо экипажу Artemis 2, что помогли увидеть наш ми по-новому.

Left: photo I took of the moon with a 1200mm lens two nights ago

Right: photo captured by the Artemis II crew with a 400mm lens through the windows of Orion *this morning*

The crew's view of the Orientale basin is remarkable - we can't see most of it here on Earth!

But it's also kind of alarming(?!) to see the moon FILLING THE FRAME at only 400mm... guess that tends to happen when you're only 32,000 miles away compared to us being around 238,000 miles away on average 🤣

Absolutely FROTHING for what they're able to capture during their closest approach this evening!!!

Perfect background music for flow state at 2am - made with the new Lyria 3 Pro. Google AI subscribers can try it in the @GeminiApp and developers can build with the API in @GoogleAIStudio - have fun!!

Terence Tao spent a year at the Institute for Advanced Study - no teaching, no random events of committees, just unlimited time to think. But after a few months, he ran out of ideas.

Terence thinks that mathematicians and scientists need a certain level of randomness and inefficiency to come up with new ideas.
